I live for the CABE
Was it 1975 when Schwinn went from the round to the rectangle rear fender reflector on the Speedster? I ask because I have a 1974 LK serial number (Nov '74) frame, which I guess could be a 1975 year model that I recently acquired. It has the dual fender holes for the 1975 style reflector and no reflector. When I look the 1974 catalog it shows the round reflector in 1974 and the rectangle in 1975. When I google "1974 Schwinn Speedster" images, I see a mix of both types. Is it possible that 74 was a transitional year and/or the catalog wasn't updated? It is also possible that at some point in the past the fenders were changed.
I'd just like to bring it back with correct parts, is the reason I ask.
But, strangely enough depending on which rear fender it has on it, it could be correct with either rear reflector, right?
